News flash: Old people aren't completely useless. While arguably a good chunk of long-time running bands really need to pack it in, these past couple years have proven there's a bunch of death metal geezers not ready to be put out to pasture. Not by a long shot. Tibi Et Igni is another example of quality meets longevity.

After listening to some samples of the album i got the feeling that it's really average and the band repeats itself. reading all those comments of how pleasing it is makes me wonder if i should change my expectations and give it a try...

I definitely agree with you. I love everything Vader have released in the last ten years, but this album was really boring. "Light Reaper" is a sweet track, but apart from that I think everything sounds really mediocre.

A boring song or two from Vader is above most bands, the whole thing crushes on my 5.1 system. I hope people aren't judging this listening to it on earbuds or laptops. They are one of the top metal bands around and this is an astonishing work from them.

Haven't heard this one yet, but I thought Welcome to the Morbid Reich was their best by far, really far. If this album is just aping the last one, I'd enjoy it. Most bands start strong and fade as they release more and more albums, Vader has done the opposite, their early stuff bores me to sleep..Litany was the first one that sparked my interest, although ridiculously over-rated..Morbid Reich was perfect.

Yep. Vader. Crushing sound. Excellent performances and production. Drums sounds amazing. Not anything overly innovative but some of those riffs and solos are going to stick.

I remember this previously had the generic title "Welcome To Hell" whereas this title is pretty good. The Nuclearblast website said that the translation is "For You (And Only You) Fire".

I think it's more in the vein of "To the fire". Like, as an order.

It means "for you and fire" in Latin. It was used centuries ago to indacate that the reader of a message is supposed to burn it after reading.
EDIT: this is the explanation that Peter gave in an interview with a Polish magazine.

Cmon , guys remember that Vader ' s musicians are 50 years old, so dont force them to play as wild and crazy as 20 years ago, for me they are great with this stuff, and if some of you think that they play more melodic or boring for me id doesnt really matter ; great band , great lp, and great bonus songs especially when you understand polish ...

In my opinion - bonus songs are the best on this album Especially song in Polish what is quite rare and even growled can be understandable.
Sound like classic Vader from early years perfect!

I was just about to give them another try but I forgot I deleted them from my library haha. They were marring what was otherwise an enjoyable album. The Polish was not the issue for me, the songs in general were just laughable.
